A weird bug is turning iRacing into a flight simulator
New updates can sometimes introduce game-breaking bugs that unintentionally become a part of the game. Something similar has happened with this fan-favorite racing title. Twitter user RawGator, points out this strange bug that has turned his car into a flying machine.
While taking part in the Nascar race, he found himself being pushed into another car. For a brief moment, his car rammed into another driver, but instead of sticking on the track, an unknown bug sent him into the air.

This bug is not limited to just Nascars, as the off-road trucks are also impacted by the bug. At this point in time, it is safe to say that t-boning any car within the game will send you flying.
More gamers have shared their experience with the bug and how it ruined their race.
